- - Short bio: Moon-Ho Jo is the Director of Center for van der Waals quantum solids, Institute for Basic Science (IBS) and Mueunjae Chair Professor of Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH). Moon-Ho received his Ph.D. in Materials Science at University of Cambridge (2001), with a dissertation on electron-spin tunneling in half-metallic manganites. He joined the faculty of Department of Materials Science and Engineering at POSTECH in 2004 after a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard University, where he studied low temperature electron transport in nano-scaled materials. Earlier in his faculty career, he had worked on epitaxial growth of alloy semiconductor nanowires and nanowire optoelectronics. Later, he was working on epitaxial growth of novel van der Waals heterostructures and light-matter interaction, therein. In 2022, he set out the IBS Center, working toward epitaxial molding of novel van der Waals lattices for the new quantum technology material platforms. In particular, his research interests lie in (1) epitaxial growth of van der Waals heterostructures in atomic precision and (2) optical and electronic device physics in new van der Waals quantum materials. His research center can be found in https://www.ibs.re.kr/vdwqs on the web. He was appointed as an associate fellow of The Korea Academy of Science and Technology in 2016. He is currently an Editorial Advisory Board member of Nano Letters.
